'There is a desert between Bania, Kamuhul, and Kambaya. From Kambaya to Saimur the villages lie close to one another, and there is much land under cultivation. The Moslims and infidels in this tract wear the same dresses, and let their beards grow in the same fashion. They use fine muslin garments on account of the extreme heat. The men of Multan dress in the same way. The language of Mansura, Multan, and those parts is Arabic and Sindian. In Makran they use Persian and Makranic. All wear short tunics except the merchants, who wear shirts and cloaks of cotton, like the men of Trak and Persia.
